Susan Zemanek, Web Designer for the San Francisco Bay Area and Anywhere in the U.S.
Affordable Website Design Services and Search Engine Optimization

Why have a website if no one can find you, including Google, Bing, Yahoo - and potential customers?

Why bother with a "I did it myself" website if it looks unprofessional and doesn't inspire potential clients/customers to contact you?

And do you really want to do it yourself when I'll do it right the first time?

SPECIAL FOR NEW CUSTOMERS:
INVEST $225.00 FOR A WEBSITE DESIGN DONE RIGHT AND OPTIMIZED FOR THE SEARCH ENGINES. Read on...

As your web designer, I will...

Provide a clean, nicely designed website using current web design standards based on Google's Web Master Guidelines that is pleasing to the eye and optimized for the search engines. I use the software program called Dreamweaver to design all my sites. Why is that important? Includes: Up to 2 initial design drafts to choose from based on your suggestions, ideas and requirements, with 2 rounds of revisions of your selected design.

Create the following pages: Home (index page) – This page is your first impression page. It must strongly present the benefits of your products or service – your sales message if you will; Contact page - including a submission form to request more info or to be added to your mailing list for your newsletter if you have one;  Up to 3 additional pages of your choice (such as your bio page, testimonials, resources, service or product description page…)

Create an XML site map which I’ll submit to Google, Bing and Yahoo so they'll find the important pages on your website and list them in their directories.

Provide assistance in signing up for web hosting and creating your hosting e-mail account.

Provide a copy of all files used to create the website.  You own the website once it is complete.

Getting Started With Your Website – What I Need From You

Web site content (even if just in draft form) this includes your logo (if any), photos and graphics. I’ll also need a list of the local cities and towns that you serve if applicable. To begin creating content, determine your website's chief purpose – why do you want a website, what do you want it to do for your business or service, how can you help a potential customer (benefits)? What sets you apart from your competition?

A list of keyword phrases consisting of 2 or more words that you think your potential clients will use in the search engines to find your site. These will be the phrases I’ll use to optimize your search engine positioning (SEO).

A list of up to 5 websites that you like visually (although I'm not a graphic designer so I'll do the best I can or tell you I can't replicate the site design). 

The colors you want me to use on the site.

Some Technical Nitty-Gritty

In-Person Meeting Fee: I charge an additional $50.00 to cover my travel time and expenses if you’d like to meet with me in person. Travel radius must be within 45 miles of Richmond, CA.

Expiration Date: All content and design items must be finalized by client and the site must go live within 3 months from the date of our signed agreement.

Terms: A deposit of $100.00 is due along with the agreement. Balance due when project is completed to your satisfaction or on the expiration date of the agreement, whichever comes first.
